For you amateur/professional bartenders out there, what is your favorite mixed drink you like to make yourself?
For example mine is an Acapulco
1 part tequila
1 part dark aged rum
I part triple sec
Garnish with a lime

This, which I thought I had invented till I discovered Hemingway got there before me...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_...noon_(cocktail)

I use Pernod instead of absinthe, though.

brandrea · 7 September 2015, 12:46 PM

Mines simple ... Screech rum and coca cola on ice with a twist of lime.

GB-man · 7 September 2015, 12:46 PM

Generally I like whiskey but here is a fun one

Gazpacho:

2 parts gin
1 part st germain
Juice from roughly 1/4 lemon
3-5 drops of Siracha to taste

Shake with ice, strain, pour over ice.

BNA/LION · 7 September 2015, 12:49 PM

Chopin Potato Vodka and Cranberry Juice with a Spritz of Lime!

Tri-Tip · 7 September 2015, 12:49 PM

Simple...Vodka & Tonic, but more of a beer & wine drinker

HobokenRolex · 7 September 2015, 01:36 PM

Negroni. Gin, sweet vermouth, Campari. Cheers!

Knappo 1307 · 7 September 2015, 01:46 PM

Moscow Mule for myself and wife. Awesome summer drink.

subtona · 7 September 2015, 02:08 PM

Bloody Mary

Or

Scotch

But I have experimented with
Red bull with bulleit rye, it does the trick if you are looking to keep up in the late hours.

SearChart · 7 September 2015, 02:18 PM

Gin tonic. I usually drink wine or Scotch though.

Abdullah71601 · 7 September 2015, 06:30 PM

NA... But I drink 8 to 10 every day...

BBL · 7 September 2015, 08:33 PM

Milk: (acquired after major surgery when couldn't eat and now addicted):
lactose free, fat free milk in ice cold glass (colder the better) ..... ugghhhh to most!!
Go thru a liter every 1 1/2 days.

But I do digress just a little..... especially ..in hot afternoon.. have to keep up, you know!!!!

andromeda160 · 7 September 2015, 10:21 PM

Vodka & Redbull Is my mixed drink of choice. But I usually stick with beer.

Psmith · 7 September 2015, 11:05 PM

Kinda settled on G&T nowadays. Only occasionally though.

cop414 · 8 September 2015, 02:23 AM

Not too much of a hard stuff kind of guy anymore but when I am it's generally a whiskey sour or rum and coke.

Kyle13 · 8 September 2015, 03:27 AM

Vodka mixed with monster you can drink tons of it and not taste the alcohol, but 3 weekends ago I swore off alcohol after waking up the next morning not knowing where I was or remembering the night! Lol

I like trying different Gin's with tonic. I also find that the tonics vary considerably (Fever Tree, Fentimans, 1724 etc)

Relyt · 8 September 2015, 03:51 AM

Not my fav, but give this a try: 3 part vodka, fill rest of glass with ice/ diet mt dew, and then add a squirt of orange Mio (water flavorer).

Tastes just like a creamsicle.

Three measures of Gordon's
one of vodka
half a measure of Kina Lillet

(Shake it very well until it's ice-cold,
then add a large thin slice of lemon peel).

Got it?

Manofsteelpt · 8 September 2015, 05:21 AM

I'm a Scotch guy, but am a sucker for a good Mojito.

TheBluePrince · 8 September 2015, 05:33 AM

Pegu Club Cocktail.

mailman · 8 September 2015, 06:45 AM

Summer...orange vodka with tonic.

Colder months...Glennfiddich on the rocks with a splash of water.

If I'm somewhere where they make a good Bloody Mary, I'm in.

chaisson · 8 September 2015, 06:55 AM

Vodka and unsweetened grapefruit juice, lots of ice.....

Guess not(The "got it?" is a direct quote from the Casino Royale book, but left out of
the movie script).

Lagavulin, mixed with one ice cube.

beer · 8 September 2015, 11:52 PM

i like making weird combinations of alcohol and coffee

james1787 · 9 September 2015, 12:02 AM

Mostly wine/beer myself.. and even then not too often. Very rarely I'll have a gin and tonic (once or twice a year?).. or a scotch or whiskey. I used to like Long Island iced teas when I was younger but haven't had one of those in a long time.

One bourbon one scotch one beer

Tri-Tip · 9 September 2015, 02:22 AM

I'm not much of a Martini drinker, but I was on a few cruises on Princess, and they make one called "Chairman of the Board".

Chairman of the Board. I think the Cointreau cuts it just enough to be tasty:

3 parts Grey Goose Vodka
3 parts Bombay Sapphire Gin
1 part Cointreau
Chilled over ice and strained
Garnished with 3 plump olives (or a twist)
